Did you discover where the "Approaching Vehicle Sound for Pedestrians" sound is coming from? Based on the recordings I've heard (still waiting for my Leaf), I would not expect those sounds to come out of the regular horn.

There is a speaker under the hood down low on the driver's side that plays the VSP sound, as well as the backup sound and some of the charging beeps....

I would not call it a design flaw but smart weight reduction, since the car is likely to alway be near some services and only has a sub 100 mile range having a spare only adds much weight and additional cost. I have never owned and EV with a spare.
